‘TODAY OUR SON JOHNNY CRISSTOPHER WILL FINALLY RING THE BELL SYMBOLIZING HIS REMISSION AND THE END OF HIS TREATMENT!’ Criss Angel announced on social media
Magician Criss Angel‘s 7-year-old son Johnny Crisstopher has entered remission after more than five years since his cancer diagnosis.
The illusionist — who shares Johnny with Shaunyl Benson — shared the news on Instagram writing, “TODAY OUR SON JOHNNY CRISSTOPHER WILL FINALLY RING THE BELL SYMBOLIZING HIS REMISSION AND THE END OF HIS TREATMENT! 🎉”
Johnny was first diagnosed with leukemia in 2015 and had a brief remission before his dad revealed in December 2019 that his child’s cancer had come back.
In honor of the latest milestone, Angel, 54, shared a video documenting Johnny’s entire battle with cancer, calling it “the most important post I have ever made.” The nearly 14-minute long short film is titled “1095” — representing the 1,095 chemotherapy sessions needed to treat his son’s type of B-Cell A.L.L. Leukemia.
